KeriParticipantGood Morning Hang, from Wisconsin!
Leo Gura got me out of my head! I love his content! I have also learned there is a time to let go of “trying to figure it out” and JUST DO! Life can only be planned out so much. By “doing” and being active is the only way (that I found) to know what will work and will not. You will find your way. I am sure of that! Why? Because you are reaching out… exploring… learning…! Don’t pigeon hole yourself into what others do or say or how they live their life. It’s ok to not have a plan. The more I over thought and let my limiting beliefs take hold the longer I sat THINKING. Time kills all “deals”. Take what your learning and start applying. Who cares what you blog. Shit… blog exactly about what you wrote above! People relate to this stuff! Here is Leo’s link if your interested. I know it’s just more “stuff” in your toolbox but tools are good;)

AnonymousGuestDear Hang:
You wrote: “Then i continued apply for school of teaching Vietnamese for foreigners, i was chosen but the thing was they offered me a low salary. So i refused it.” The low salary you were offered, isn’t it higher than your current salary, which is none? Why did you refuse it when it was a higher salary than your current salary and you very much enjoyed teaching Vietnamese a short time ago?

Hang DoParticipantDear Keri,
Thank you for reading my confidence. I will think about what you advised me for sure. At least now i do not think about blogging much. i should be myself. And yes, i am still continuing applying.
Have a nice day Keri!Hang

About the thing i refused their offer was because beside teaching at school, i also need to teach at students’places. Of course the school will give me small trip fee like for petrol but i felt my energy should be deserved a bit more. I considered that wage per each lesson they offered me was low because other school offered me with the same wage while i just need to teach at schools, no where else (the reason i declined this school was the school is located in suburban, very far from my place, i just figured out when attending the interview)

I see. And I suppose there was no way to negotiate a higher pay to compensate you for the traveling…
Back to your original post, you wrote: “Then a Korean guy contacted me on Wechat asking me for teaching him English and Vietnamese also ( I am Vietnamese), after the first lesson, i screamed from inside of me: this is what i am looking for.”
This is meaningful to me, meaningful in understanding you- when something “screamed from inside of (you)”- that means a whole lot. I sure hope you find a way to make that motivation lead you to an opportunity to teach Vietnamese or something else.

July 11, 2016 at 8:19 am #109389Hang DoParticipantThank you so much Anita. I hope i am lucky enough to make money from the job i like. There is still a fact that sometimes people have to earn money from the jobs they do not like but they have to go with it for living and some reason else. anyway, i believe i can do it.

You are welcome. As you consider a job just so to pay the bills, don’t forget about what you feel passionate about. The opportunity to make a living doing that may not be present, but honor what makes you feel passionate; honor your motivations, what you value and what energizes you- this honoring will come handy for you no matter what it is that you do for a living and otherwise.
